Table - best surf conditions forecast for Jaconé over the next 16 days.
Alright, Rusty here, giving you the lowdown on the 16-day forecast. It’s a slow burn, but there’s a couple of days that are worth paddling out for.
The first few days are pretty quiet. Sunday morning is a bit of a dud with a 3ft SE swell and a cross-shore wind, so don’t rush out. The real action starts to build towards Wednesday, July 15th. That’s when things get interesting.
The standout window is Wednesday morning, July 15th. Jaconé is looking good with a 6ft swell from the SSE, and the key is the offshore wind from the NE. That’s going to be clean, glassy surf. The combined swell energy is 703 (moderate), but with that wind, it’s going to be a proper session. The water temp is 72°, which is about average for this time of year, so nothing to worry about.
Thursday, July 16th is also a solid choice. Another morning of clean conditions with a 5ft SE swell and offshore NE wind. The combined energy is a touch lower at 533 (moderate), but it’s still a good, clean wave. The swell period is 10 seconds, so it’s got some shape to it, not too short, not too long. Just a nice, surfable wave.
For the rest of the first week, expect a few more days of clean conditions, but the swell drops off a bit. By the weekend, the 18th and 19th, you’re looking at smaller stuff, around 3ft to 5ft, but still clean. It’s surfable, but nothing to get overly excited about.
Looking further ahead into the second week, there’s a promising blip on July 25th. That Saturday morning has a 5ft ENE swell with clean offshore winds, and the combined energy jumps to 600 (moderate). This one is a bit far out, so treat it as a promising possibility. The afternoon also has a 3ft SSW swell, but with a 12-second period, it could be a fun little bump.
Overall, the best bet is to mark your calendar for Wednesday morning, July 15th and Thursday, July 16th. That’s the cleanest, most consistent action we’ve got. The rest of the period is a mix of small, clean waves and a few blustery days, but nothing that’s going to blow your mind.
Rusty.

Information about the Jaconé Surf forecast
The above surf forecast table for Jaconé provides essential information for determining whether the surfing conditions will be good over the next 16 days. A general guide to surfing at Jaconé can be found by selecting the local surf guide option on the grey menu. Our Jaconé surf forecast is unique since it includes wave energy (power) that defines the real feel of the surf rather than just the height or the period. If you surf the same spot (Jaconé) regularly then make a mental note of the wave energy from the surf forecast table each time you go. Very soon you may start to choose your surf days based on the wave energy alone combined with our forecast of favourable offshore wind conditions. Our star ratings will help here and of course you will also find the usual wave height and period predictions on our surf forecasts as well as a full break down of the swell components under our advanced users option (to reveal that, click the little Einstein character under the tide times).
Further information to help with frequently asked questions about our surf forecast for Jaconé may be found under the help tab on the top menu and also by moving your mouse over the question marks on the surf forecast table itself. Please always bear in mind that the forecast is for near-shore open water and local factors at each surf break influence the actual breaking wave height, such as the beach / reef profile, water depths offshore and shelter.
Jacone is 14 km (9 miles) from the city of Saquarema. If you plan a holiday in Rio de Janeiro, look for hotels and other accommodation in Saquarema. Saquarema has rooms for a wide range of budgets as well as car hire and transport links.
